there are more but I think this gives you a little idea.

Very good point. And no.

I think DS9 is very much a 1990s show with a Gen X sensibility and a dash of 1970s chaotic realism (from its creators), existing in the liminal space between the world polarization of the Cold War and the even greater polarization that's grown within the US in the past 20 years.

Here's some cultural context, since some of you don't remember the 90s. Apologies for the US-centrism.

Its main audience, Gen X, had been children under Pres Reagan, growing up with the prospect of nuclear annihilation at any second. Some of our earliest memories were disco and our hippie Boomer parents (where did they go?) protesting the Vietnam War.

I'm probably missing some context, because I think the creators of Deep Space Nine grew to adulthood in the 70s. Which I vaguely remember as being when African Americans were briefly celebrated as artists and cool dudes and professionals in the wake of the civil rights movement being successful… or so allies naively thought, since it was briefly unpopular to be overtly racist in public. I'm sure there are other 1970s things I missed. But they had a lot in common with us youngsters.

For the last several decades, the US had been involved in mini Vietnams all over the place you've probably never heard about, arming and sometimes fighting on one side of civil wars because the other side was Communist, Socialist, and/or backed by the Soviets. El Salvador. Nicaragua. Lebanon. Afghanistan. Communism and Socialism were treated as a monolithic threat largely thanks to Stalin establishing a horrible rep for Communism, which was a lot more authoritarian than Marx had envisioned (see also China).

From 1978-1992, there had been a war in Afghanistan between its Communist government backed by the USSR and religiously-motivated freedom fighters, the Mujahideen, including different religiously-motivated factions that would become the Taliban and, later, Al-Qaeda. The CIA trained and provided arms to these, although it disputes claims that it trained bin Laden.

I feel like the Bajorans may draw somewhat from the Mujahideen, although there's also hints of freedom fighters in various parts of the disintegrating Soviet Union, especially Chechnya.

Finally, Deep Space Nine was developed just after the unpopular (I'm biased; I was one of the protesters, but mass protests were on the news) 1990-1991 First Gulf War, when a US-led coalition intervened in a local Middle East dispute between Iraq and Kuwait. Which — bad, but we were afraid of peers in the army getting sacrificed in another Vietnam for oil. Which George Bush senior didn't manage to do, but unfortunately his son did. :/

Other context: the AIDS crisis, gays beginning to come out of the closet and risk marching for civil rights. At the time we were asking for protections against being fired, losing our kids, or being barred from teaching, the military, and loved ones' hospital rooms since non-legal partners had no right to be there or make medical decisions. States were rushing to ban same-sex marriage, so it never occurred to me that would become legal in my lifetime. I remember being harassed in 1994 simply for stopping and reading a "happy coming out day" sign chalked on the sidewalk; the person calling it gross was a college student who'd been snogging his girlfriend in public ten seconds earlier.

yeah. So that thing with Jadzia and her ex was grojndbreaking for its day. Pretty pathetic, huh?

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine was not a perfect show but its treatment of imperialism, war crimes, and genocide was light-years ahead of some of the stuff coming out today (looking at you, Star Wars).

In DS9:

Bajor, a world struggling to recover from decades of genocidal colonial policies, is front and center

Bajoran characters, most prominently Kira, are allowed to grapple with their own trauma and their stories don’t revolve around making their oppressors, the Cardassians, feel better

Kira’s history of violent resistance against the occupation is not sugarcoated, nor does the show shy away from the fact that she hurt innocent people in the process. But neither does the story condemn her for using violence to resist genocide

Not only was Kira a terrorist, but a religiously driven one as well. Belief in the Prophets held Bajor together during the occupation, and is a major subject of exploration in the show

Despite all that Bajor suffered, Bajorans are not relics of the past or a destroyed, defeated people–their culture is vital and alive, they are rebuilding against incredible odds, and are working toward Federation membership

Bajorans themselves are not some misty spiritual cardboard cutouts, either. They are complex, they lash out, they are spiritual, they are lovers, killers, reactionaries, weirdos, mystics, the full range of experiences and personalities

And then there’s Kai Winn, who is an entire book in herself. She is such a well-drawn female villain, a complicated portrayal of self-serving ambition, self-deception, and self-entitlement

Because Bajorans are given their own stories, it actually works when some Cardassians–generally minor and one-off characters–are shown to be dissenters, or themselves traumatized from the occupation

We actually see Dukat, the leader of the occupation, trying to play the misunderstood hero/redemption card only to get slapped down by the narrative time and again

Dukat isn’t a one-note villain either; he is often charming and sometimes inspiring, as when he has a stint as a resistance fighter himself against the Klingons occupying Cardassian territory

Ultimately, though, the story reveals Dukat to be a liar, a virulent racist, an abuser, and at heart an imperialist megalomaniac who almost destroyed the Alpha Quadrant with his lust for power

David Brin was right and Star Trek is better

I guess as of late I don’t post much, personal or art, but with this, I’m so... excited? School ends in four days and as soon as that ends I’m heading to Nicaragua for a mission trip and I’m just excited.

I’ll be free from school (not the hw, I have IB) and I can focus on art and the humans in my life (you know who you are ;3).I’m so pumped to sleep in a little and contemplate my life a more.

Man I’m tired right now XD

Ilhan Omar interrogates Trump Venezuela envoy over his role in Iran-Contra scandal - Donald Trump's envoy to Venezuela was left flustered and visibly angry following an interrogation by Democratic congresswoman Ilhan Omar over his controversial political past. Elliot Abrams was appointed special envoy to Venezuela last month to help lead the US response to the political crisis in the South American country, which is seeing widespread hunger and violence following the collapse of its economy.  On Wednesday, Mr Abrams, who served in the Reagan administration, testified in front of the House foreign affairs select committee, where he was subjected to a fierce line of questioning by Ms Omar.  The 37-year-old, elected to the House in November, raised Mr Abrams’ role in the Iran-Contra affair, in which he was found guilty on two counts of withholding information from Congress. He was later pardoned by President George HW Bush. “I fail to understand why members of this committee or the American people should find any testimony that you give today to be truthful,” Ms Omar said, who added it “wasn’t a question” when an agitated Mr Abrams tried to respond. She next raised Mr Abrams’ denials of an infamous 1982 massacre against civilians by the US–funded El Salvadoran military at El Mozote, which occurred while he was the US government's assistant secretary of state for human rights.  Mr Abrams at the time dismissed reports of hundreds of deaths as “not credible” while testifying to a Senate committee.  “In that hearing you dismissed as communist propaganda reports about the massacre of El Mozote,” Ms Omar said.  Noting up to 800 people had been killed, Ms Omar observed Mr Abrams had hailed US policy in El Salvador a “fabulous achievement”.  “Yes or no: do you still think so?” she asked.  “From the day that President Duarte was elected in a free election, to this day El Salvador has been a democracy,” Mr Abrams said. “That’s a fabulous achievement.” Ms Omar responded. “Yes or no: Do you think that massacre was a fabulous achievement that happened under our watch?”  “That is a ridiculous question…” Mr Abrams said before Ms Omar cut him off, “Yes or no?” “No!” Mr Abrams said, visibly angry.  Ms Omar moved onto questioning Mr Abrams over his planned approach to Venezuela.  “Yes or no, would you support an armed faction within Venezuela that engages in war crimes, crimes against humanity or genocide if you believe they were serving US interests, as you in Guatemala, El Salvador and Nicaragua?” she asked. “I am not going to respond to that question, I’m sorry” Mr Abrams said. “I don’t think this entire line of questioning is meant to be real questions, so I will not reply.”  Ms Omar countered: “Whether under your watch a genocide will take place and you will look the other way because American interests are being upheld is a fair question. Because the American people want to know that any time we engage a country that we think about what our actions could be and how we believe our values are being furthered.  “That is my question. Will you make sure that human rights are not violated and we uphold international and human rights?”  Mr Abrams said: “The entire thrust of American policy in Venezuela is to support the Venezuelan people’s effort to restore democracy to their country." -- from Mock the Right on Facebook - https://goo.gl/tYgshr
